A method and system are disclosed for controlling the movement of a graphical pointer displayed within a display device of a data processing system having a graphical pointing device. According to the present invention, a widget, a predefined region within a graphical display, and a graphical pointer are displayed within the display device of the data processing system. When the graphical pointer is displayed at positions within the widget, a first relationship correlates manipulation of the graphical pointing device and movement of the graphical pointer within the display device. Conversely, when the graphical pointer is displayed at positions without the widget, a second relationship correlates manipulation of the graphical pointing device and movement of the graphical pointer within the display device. In response to manipulation of the graphical pointing device, movement of the graphical pointer is determined in accordance with the first relationship when the graphical pointer is displayed at positions within the widget and in accordance with the second relationship when the graphical pointer is displayed at positions without the widget, wherein control of the graphical pointer is enhanced. |
